Site Editorial Commentary：This is an app to fix the orientation of the screen in a specific direction

Screen Orientation Control is a utility app designed to give you precise control over your device's screen orientation, regardless of the application you're using.

With this tool, you can lock your screen in a specific orientation (portrait or landscape, including reverse orientations) or enable sensor-based rotation for a more dynamic experience. You can conveniently manage screen orientation directly from the notification area. A standout feature is the ability to associate specific applications with preferred screen orientations, automatically switching when the app launches.

Keep in mind that due to hardware limitations, some screen orientations may not be supported on all devices.

**Important Considerations:**

This app works by forcibly overriding the display settings of other applications. While generally safe, this can potentially lead to instability or, in rare cases, app crashes. Use this app at your own risk. If you encounter issues with specific apps after using Screen Orientation Control, please do not contact the developers of those apps, as the problem is related to the orientation control.

**How It Works:**

The app operates by creating a transparent, untouchable UI layer above other applications. This layer intercepts and overrides the screen orientation requests of other apps, giving it higher priority. This mechanism allows the app to enforce your desired orientation system-wide.

To remain active and maintain control, the app runs in the background and displays a persistent notification. This is a requirement of the Android operating system for apps that run in the background.

**Limitations Due to the Operating Mechanism:**

- The persistent notification cannot be hidden due to Android system restrictions.
- The app may be flagged by the system as a potential source of battery drain. If this occurs, you can try adjusting your device's power-saving settings to prevent the app from being terminated.
- Because it uses an overlay, it might be mistakenly identified as an app performing unauthorized actions, potentially triggering warnings or restrictions. This is an unavoidable consequence of using overlay technology.
- Conflicts may arise when using this app in conjunction with other apps that utilize screen overlays, potentially leading to unexpected behavior.

**Available Settings:**

* **Unspecified:** Defer to the orientation settings of the currently displayed app.
* **Portrait:** Force portrait mode.
* **Landscape:** Force landscape mode.
* **Rev Port:** Force reverse portrait mode.
* **Rev Land:** Force reverse landscape mode.
* **Full Sensor:** Rotate freely in all orientations based on the device's sensor (system control).
* **Sensor Port:** Fixed to portrait, automatically flip upside down by sensor
* **Sensor Land:** Fixed to landscape, automatically flip upside down by sensor
* **Lie Left:** Rotate it 90 degrees to the left with respect to the sensor. If you lie on left lateral and use it, the top and bottom will match.
* **Lie Right:** Rotate it 90 degrees to the right with respect to the sensor. If you lie on right lateral and use it, the top and bottom will match.
* **Headstand:** Rotate 180 degrees with respect to the sensor. If you use this by headstand, the top and bottom will match.
* **Full:** Rotate in all orientations by sensor (app control)
* **Forward:** Rotate in forward orientations by the sensor. Does not rotate in reverse orientations
* **Reverse:** Rotate in reverse orientations by the sensor. Does not rotate in forward orientations

**Troubleshooting:**

If you are unable to lock the screen in the reversed portrait or landscape orientations, try enabling auto-rotate in your device's system settings.
